in reply to ppm profile failed: Can't determine best

The error comes from lib\ActivePerl\PPM\Package.pm but I haven't tried to make sense of what that particular code is trying to do. Maybe modify the best() sub to print out the contents of @dunno - which might provide you with the hint you need.

(I guess you already know that, for your particular exercise, you need to modify the "ACTIVEPERL VERSION" and "REPOSITORY HREF" entries in the profile file that 5.10 produced.)

Cheers,
Rob
